Great video. I have one of those Sheratons that I bought used for the giveaway price of $275. One of the best guitar bargains I’ve ever come across. Love the guitar. Epiphone build quality has improved in recent years.
I'm interested in buying one. I need it to be very versatile but I'm a little unsure how it would do harder rock stuff (Van Halen, Foo Fighters, Muse etc.)?
It obviously looks cool as hell and sounds great clean and dirty (blues, pop, jazz, etc.)
@@sumsar0125 I have a black 2015 model that I bought brand new and it is a FANTASTIC guitar. Easily competes with American guitars on a budget. At lower volumes it sounds great with drive and thicker distortion but once you turn up the volume it is prone to feedback but I personally really like that about semi-hollows. The feedback is great when you learn to control it. When I play I've easily gotten Foo Fighters and Muse type tones out of it, as well as older blues, rock, and jazz styles. The coil splits are a plus and can be pretty useful but I also have a strat so I personally don't use them much.
I put a gold bigsby and roller bridge on mine. Also gold strings. Looks great.
I picked up a 2010 Sheraton II this past weekend and it must have been a case queen since it is almost flawless. What a nice guitar! Epiphone really does a great job with this model and almost all of the reviews and comments about them are extremely positive and I agree, what a wonderful guitar. Sounds great, plays fast, great neck, and just a nice Epiphone find.
I saw you play this off against the dot and preferred the sherry all day long . Mine will be ebony with gold hardware .. For bluesy jazz or jazzy blues and more either side and inbetween, this will do it . Very nice playing yet again man 😎
Whoever is playing bass is killing it!
Also, the Midnight Sapphire finish looks incredible with the gold hardware. Not that the other finishes looks bad, either. Maybe my childhood days of rooting for Notre Dame, or the colors of the current and last school I taught at are shining through.
There's just something about the sound and the soul of a Sheraton 2!!!!!!! I've had one since 3-28-2015!!!!!The Sheraton 2 pro is comming in October for my birthday.
I have a 1997 Samek Sheraton that is a fabulous guitar. I prefer it to my Gibson. The Sheraton plays effortlessly....probably my favourite guitar. Well done Epiphone. Happy Anniversary!
I love the Epiphone Line of guitars. They have a great feel and very solid feel combined with there quality. I have two and fixing too add a Tobacco Burst Sheraton Pro 2. I have guitars that cost a lot more but don’t even come close too these.
Sounds good to me, Rich :-). Excellent playing BTW. Especially the intro. & the jam between 7.49-8.25 :-). Thank you for uploading.
MARTIAL WAY - exactly!, what a brilliant "lay down""of great vibrato, and sounding-trem m-echo! Nice; It'd be nice to know what effects you were onto there! - and yeah! that Bass Playing on the backing track - that is Very Good! 👍 That is no two-finger "R&R" bassist!, - that is a thoroughly Jazz-educated Jazz Bass afficias nado!_"The Jaco vibe!" Thsnks for dome excellent work!
Holy moly, is that tag on the neck saying “buy me for only 500 murican bucks”? That’s awesome 😎 (Over here in Euro area it goes over the counter for 700 euro coins / $ 845) Love the midnight sapphire color 😍
i must have this guitar and in this colour.
I must have this guy in this colour!
You nailed that! Very nice, thanks.
I have same guitar in same colour. Its a real beauty by looks. Neck is comfortable, sounds amazing btw. Specially when this guy is ripping it. 🙏😎
I have this same guy in the same colour.
Love it! Ordered one and waiting for it to arrive at my local music store
I have the Wine Red model 2019 - so beautiful - I haven't played it much - waiting to finish my studio rearrangement to do some recording - Great playing and video Rich - ya makin me want to get her out and jam.
Awesome playing... I have a -97 Korean made and I looove it!!! :)
Great demo, thanks for sharing your talent and knowledge!!
Yes I have the Emily wolf signature guitar 🎸 it Rocks ❤
I have this one...
Beautiful guitar and lovely sound!!!
Thanks for video

@@sumsar0125 boy are you in for a real treat.
How was the playability out of the box? Did the frets need adjusting or was there anything that caused buzzing or poor tone that needed to be fixed?
I like it, just ordered one in black
Man thatsa nicea. Color is grand. It almost changed my mind. I just purchased the new Epi 335 in Raspberry Iced tea, but looks and sound fantastic.
Killer guitar. I have it in natural. Pretty much my go to guitar.

samsar0125 Eddie Van Halen owns a es 335 or two and recorded some music one , Dave Grohl plays a Gibson custom es 335 . Alex Lifeson of Rush played 335’s and 355’s , as did many other players . Yes they can rock hard wirh very little feedback because they are semi Hollow bodies with a solid center block
Love the color and the sound, hard to find the Sapphire color any more :( A MUST HAVE FOR ME!
Sounds good! I like the color
Appreciate it Rich.
Mine is coming next week. Vintage finish for me as black costs +130€
I bet this would sound even better with a set of Klein Wicked PAF's in it :)
Outstanding demo!! There's one close by for $300 bucks. Lefty, vintage sunburst or whatever that they call it. You may have just sold it for the dude. Great intro/outro jams!!
Dude you've got killer video quality. Killer playing and plenty of gear to review.
How did you find one with silver pickups and parts instead of gold?
Your intro playing reminds me of Scott Henderson. Sounds great!
I've watched this video three times. I love the Foo Fighters (Dave Grohl is famous for his Trini Lopez customs) and Coheed & Cambria (Claudio Sanchez is famous for playing Explorers). I used to have a Gibson Explorer, but want something that will give me a range of options. The Probuckers are (IMO) superior to the AlNiCo Classic Pro PUs, and while the latest Epiphone Explorer has the same PUs as the Sheraton II Pro, the Sheraton has more tonal options available. Besides, I want an actual Gibson to replace my old one (even though it originally had P90s that I replaces with SD Full Shreds). The Epiphone Dot or 335 still (as of now) comes with AlNiCo II Pro PUs, which can be a bit muddy, especially when compared to the ProBucker. There is a fine line between muddy and creamy, and the old Epiphone PUs just don't cut it. I really expected the latest 335 in olive drab green to get the ProBuckers, even the Lzzy Hale Explorer, but alas, no.
Nice video man, cheers
Nice guitar.
I really did not know much about Epiphone guitars just that they made Gibson clones. But with nothing to do one day spent an afternoon playing many other name archtop guitars and thinking well I guess I will have to learn how to get a good sound out of archtops. Then I plugged in a Sheraton II Pro . . . Left the shop without the guitar (wrong color - I don't need another black guitar. Naturally all they had was black). Later I had to look up online the correct way to pronounce Ephiphone. After playing the Sheraton I could swear it should be pronounced Epiphany. But no the way everyone pronounces it is correct.
Play on my Brother!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you for skills!!!!!!!!
Oh yeah!
I love the look of the Sheraton, but why did they stop the inlays at the 15th fret like that??
Great looks and sound, now where’s my cash hidden!
ive bought two of these one natural and one black, both were exceptional guitars, on the other hand i bought two epi 335's and both were hot garbage, everything that could be wrong was. night n day difference in those two models
I saw a nice review. From what I know, from the latest model in 2018, I know it as pau ferro, not rosewood fingerboard. Is the model you reviewed also pau ferro?
This one is pau ferro.
Hi! We would like to know what shape the handle has. Thanks! Great playing !!!
Fawesome
Thanks
Ciao, una domanda: poiché a casa suono con le cuffie, il suono della cassa acustica è forte? Grazie e buona giornata!
Hi ,
Congratulations on the tutorials and your music on TH-cam.
I respect you very much.
I'd like to ask you for advice.
I would like to buy a 335-like SEMI-ACOUSTIC GUITAR.
I have seen these models that over time I will try.
IBANEZ AS93 or AS193.
TOKAI UES78
EPIPHONE SHERATON II PRO
AGSTROM VIKING 2019
Which of these, in your opinion in order of importance, can approach the sound of the GIBSON335 possibly with a PICK UP change (which ones?)
I thank you and always follow you.
I wish you and your family HAPPY HOLIDAYS and a NEW YEAR full of health, serenity, many beautiful things and the realization of your dreams, needs and desires.
Roberto
Probably the Sheraton, but, I haven't played the Tokai of the Agstrom, so really not sure.
Play that guitar 🤙
Nice. I want one.. Whats the main difference between the Sheraton II and the II pro? Apart from age
I believe the Sheraton Pro II is made in China and the Sheraton Pro was made in Korea - I have the Pro made in China , I was amazed how well it was made , very good craftsmanship - quality hardware too.
Where can I find this one?
Rich, are you from Utah? I recognize the Smith and Edward's shirt.
Yes
Me too. Excellent guitar playing.
Thanks! Whereabouts?
@@RichBischoff right now, in the Murray, Holladay area. I just sold my house. You?
Box Elder County/Brigham City area.
do you also get the sheraton pro 2 in a pearl white ?
Hi Rich, thanks for the video. I just ordered one of these and I am having trouble finding a hard shell case. I have read that the Epiphone
E519 that Epiphone suggests for it won't fit and I will need to buy an SKB 1SKB-35. Would you tell me what you are using or what would fit. Thanks
Unfortunately I don't own this guitar, and still need to find a hard case for the es335 style guitar that I do own...🤣
I think the 519 will work for you.
no clean tone?
Can you play it with out and amp?
Can someone be kind enough to help me? If I was to choose between the Epi ES-335 & the Epi Sheraton what should I look for? I'm a bit of a newb & would like to get a semi-hollow but I do not know the difference between the two. Not sure which would be better. Any thoughts on what separates
the two would be helpful.
From what I’ve heard, the Sheraton is definitely the better guitar. Especially if you have the Sheraton II Pro. It comes with the new Epi Probuckers which are pretty solid pickups and has an edge in build quality/playability
@@tmb472 , Thanks! appreciate taking time to answer. Sounds like a better deal for just a little more money.
@@robertmckeon7953 not a problem! I just got my Sheraton a few days ago and I love it! It’s an awesome guitar and sounds great.
Sheraton is more woody sounding. More like the traditional semi hollow authentic sound. Plus you have coil split on the humbuckers and hence more tonal options.
@@Chip_57 , thanks for taking time to answer. I'm slowly building a guitar collection for myself. Next on my list is a nice Telecaster. This will probably be the next one after that. Looks like a nice value for a really nice guitar.
Is it me or does this sound muddy as hell?
It's you...
I have Sheraton Pro II ,it ain't muddy and I'm half deaf - you or your headphones must be worst
Nope, stop listening through phone speakers. Or go play one. The pro 2 made after 2015 is an outstanding consistent option for about 450 used
